Answers :

There exists a good, if not better alternative way to download your photos. Please don't take the following as a sales pitch as it's not, but please see this linked blog article, as it describes the use of an inexpensive card reader as a much easier, faster, and less error prone way to download your photos. In fact there are several important reasons discussed in the article for using a card reader vice downloading from the camera. USB Card readers are also very inexpensive these day, with cost virtually not an issue.

In May we purchased a Canon Power Shot 590IS. We love the camera, however, battery life with camera is poor at best. With new high energy digital batteries we get approxiamtely 40 - 45 pictures, with 4 differnt manufactures rechargable batteries, we get 12 - 15 pictures, before the batteries require replacement. The camera was retruned to Best Buys where we purchased it aong with an extended warranty. They keep the camera for 10 days, retruned it saying nothing was wrong. Any suggestions?

We are having great success selling our customers the Energizer Lithium AA batteries. They are a little more expensive initially, but the end cost is much lower than alkaline cells. They usually give about 7 times more shots than alkalines. There's a ...

I cannot upload pictures from the camera to the computer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software (Digital camera solution disk Ver.30.2) and have tried a different USB cable but I'm getting an error message that indicates the connection to the camera is not good. Camera works fine but how am I supposed to get the photos to the computer? It has been working without a hitch since I got the camera about 1 1/2 years ago, no changes to computer. It just decided it wasn't working anymore.

Missing Pictures I have an Olympus FE-170 digital camera and I had deleted some pictures off my memory card manually, one by one. When i was finished i shut it off. When i turned my camera back on again every one of my pictures were deleted like i had formated it. Is there any way i can get my pictures back? They mean so much to me!

It is possible to recover the lost photos with so-called photo recovery software but it's not 100% sure (if the deleted ones are overwritten). Well, since you failed to mention the OS you are running, I'll recommend you have a try o ...
